Key Points

To determine whether the implementation of crossword puzzles effectively improves English vocabulary mastery among eleventh-grade secondary school students.
Conducted an experimental pretest-posttest design with N=68 eleventh-grade students assigned to either an experimental or control group.
Administered pre-intervention and post-intervention vocabulary assessment tests to both groups.
Evaluated differences between post-test scores using an independent sample t-test calculated via SPSS.
Mean post-test vocabulary scores differed significantly between groups, with the experimental group outperforming the control group (t = 4.454 vs. critical t = 1.9966; two-tailed p < 0.001).
The rejection of the null hypothesis demonstrated that crossword puzzle exercises produced a statistically significant positive effect on students' vocabulary mastery.
